WEEKLY RECAP: Stages of Hustle-to-Business Growth

Notes from Chris

Episode 995

THEMES & TAKEAWAYS: We’ve just finished week 38 of Season III! This week featured the massive Kickstarter success that raised $415,000, Atlanta food tours, a data scientist who turns teaching frustrations into recurring income, and more. In this last weekly recap before Episode 1,000, I want to look at a topic I’m calling stages of hustle-to-business growth. If you have any background in traditional business education, you’ve probably studied stages of companies. Like so many things, the stages of going from a side hustle to a more sustainable business are a bit different... So what do those look like? Listen to the Weekly Recap to learn more!

WHERE ARE THEY NOW: Today, we have an update from Stephanie from MusicForKiddos.com who was featured on the show in Ep. 397 — Music Therapist Writes Custom Lullabies For Restless Children.
